Prospect Info: Owen Beck

[MTL Dirty Birdy]

Here's a picture of Dvorak playing a shift in the 3rd period

That looks a little too exciting for Dvorak. Let’s tone it down

Yes Kapanen plays both of those roles, his offense is a bit different as he is a net front guy. There's room for both on the team. Ideally one takes 3C and the other 4C, with the ability to jump up and play wing on line 3 for the 3rd periods so we have two guys capable of taking d zone draws should one get kicked out.

I see Becks ceiling being roughly a Danault( I feel Plek was a little more offensive) and his floor would be a Manny Malhotra.

Can anyone give a floor/ceiling to Kapanen?

Im fine with Beck being our futur fourth line center. As long as he plays hard and not try to be too cute

An issue with the bottom 6 is so many guys are going UFA , Dvorak, Army and Evans and at most Evans is resigned. Then Gallagher and Anderson have spots. Roy , Pezz and RHP fight it out. Roy sticks, Pezz says for now and I think RHP is out.

The guys incoming should be a 2-3 years away. I'm real high on Beck and hopeful about Tuch and Florian but these guys need lots of AHL time. Beck likely much closer.

There are options. Neither Evans or Dvo have to be traded at the TDL. Maybe we can come to terms with Evans but am thinking he will want some term. See how Beck and Kapanen do in their leagues.

The bottom 6 have many question marks. Fortunately, except for Cs. The prices of bottom 6 guys should not be too bad, if that's how we have to go.
